Nokia got abt $1 billion from microsoft to ensure that they use the windows platform for their devices. So Nokia won't switch to android anytime soon ...

mr.drizzy:

Kamaye: Tecno N7 killer!!!

cyrexx:

Time will tell.

4llerbuntu: finally they have acquired common sense and gone for the market segment they can conquer easily.


not bad at all at that price point.

BTW WP is very ok at 512 mb ram... or so iv heard so..... its not like u expect a budget phone to have top of the line specs or flagship performance

mr.drizzy:
hmm..so ur now telling me dat microsoft payed nokia to work with their platform,rather than d other way round.i kinda doubt that alot.os dnt pay ppl that wants to use their apps rather the make from it,d only time they myt pay company for production is when they want to produce a fone under the brand name.eg

nexus 4(owned by android/google).google payed LG to create the product
nexus 7(owned by google/adroid) google pay azus to create that device ..so pls explain what u mean by ur statement!

Me too I wonder o. It will be funny if it's true. How can they accept such a money in order to limit themselves to just one smartphone os that has less than 5% global usage. When they could make that money themselves by selling androids that millions upon millions of people are willing to buy. That is foolishness. If they had gone android from the start, I am sure they will be where Samsung is today in global sales.
Furthermore, Samsung, LG, HTC, Huawei and all other android manufacturers also had windows phones. Nokia is indeed foolish to limit itself to just windows. I won't be surprised if Samsung or HTC outsell nokia in terms of windows phone, since they are not as foolish. In fact, tecno is on its way to displace nokia as a choice smartphone brand among the Nigerian youths. Just look at the sales records of tecno N3, for instance.

m.tomshardware.com/news/Microsoft-Nokia-Windows-Phone-7-Deal-Partnership-money,14564.html this news went viral last year on tech blogs like engadget,theverge,techradar and wired.

www.betanews.com/2012/01/26/microsoft-invests-1-billion-to-sell-a-million-nokia-windows-phones/
You could also use search engines to crosscheck, nokia aint switching to android anytime soon...

mr.drizzy:
jst saw it..well thats thier loss..they should continue staying there and continue getting low income,when other brands are going viral,.seems they want to end up like BLACKBERRY

mr.drizzy:
thank u bross this is exactly what i keep telling em..its folishness,y would nokia only limit demselves to creating only one brand of fones,when the likes of samsung and htc creates fones from 2 of the world most knwn os.so they cant be left out of the market,thats business strategy,which nokia is failing to do..


And to add up to the techno brand..that company is part of the top and future smartfone company jst like xiaomi in asia..i must say,kicking out the likes of blackberry and the rigid nokia,their products so far has made a very high sales in africa to the extend..that ppls demand has surpass their actually producting amount,which makes them go into manufacturing of the same product all over again..techno thumbs up!

mr.drizzy:

So back to the issue,HTC is so far the highest and the most wiseable brand ever,being the 1st to create the 1st microsoft and android fones,all within the same year interval,their also extending their resources to sign with the so call LOCKED IOS..lets hope they can archive that,this is what we call market strategy...

Your ignorance is stunning.

Tecno is a small-time player, making cheap phones for the less discerning folks. Imagine you folks creating a topic about playing 'HD' games on a Tecno n3 that runs like crap compared to any of the Nokia lumia series. You get what you pay for, though.
Techno has no chance of being any of the big names in mobile anytime soon. They'll sell to the ultra cheap market, but the margins there are pretty small and no western company has any desire to join them in the ultra-low end battle.

Please NEVER compare Xiaomi to Techno. Xiaomi makes quality hardware with excellent build quality and top notch specs..well out of Techno's range.




Shows how little you know. HTC is in serious trouble, struggling to cope with Samsung. Their profits are dropping seriously and their fans are deserting them.
If you ever mention that HTC is making an iOS device (or licensing iOS), I will find you and beat you over the head with a cudgel.

4llerbuntu: mind numbing stuff mehn.

the obtuseness is mind boggling. i think my brain cells die each time i read one of them posts

Bawss1: A note worthy point here is that the Lumia 520, which is targeted at the low end smartphone market, is expected to start selling from $180 which is ~N28,000.

Nokia is sure bent on spreading that Windows Phone 8 goodness around.
